FAQ
I only know the specifications of the product I want to manufacture. How do I select the right hot forming equipment?

We offer customized solutions based on product simulations, engineering analysis, and accumulated experience. Simply provide us with product details, and we will recommend a tailored configuration for optimal forming precision and long-term production reliability.

How can I detect equipment faults during operation?

Our control system features real-time fault monitoring and alarm alerts. The system can pinpoint the exact failure location to help you quickly identify and resolve issues.

If the dimensions of my product change later, can I still use the customized superplastic forming equipment?

Yes. We consider your production type, whether industrial scale or research-oriented, and customize equipment based on the largest part dimensions. Future upgrades can be provided as your production needs evolve.

Do you provide customized high-temperature hot forming equipment?

Yes, all our equipment, including high-temperature forming equipment, is non-standard and tailored to your process requirements. Customization includes size adjustments, function enhancements, material selections, and control system upgrades to meet your specific production goals.

Is tooling included with the hot forming equipment? How many molds can be provided?

We can supply molds according to your process and technical requirements. The number of molds is based on your needs and will be quoted separately.

What should I do if a fault occurs during equipment operation?
Stop the machine immediately to ensure safety and prevent further damage.
Perform a visual check for obvious issues like disconnected wires or dislodged parts.
Diagnose the fault based on system alerts and the user manual. Common issues include heating failure, pressure anomalies, or control system malfunctions.
Contact technical support if internal staff cannot resolve the issue.
Document the incident thoroughly to assist with troubleshooting.
Consider backup options to minimize downtime.
Repair or replace damaged components with original or compatible parts.
Run test cycles to ensure the machine is functioning properly.
Implement preventive measures through regular maintenance.
Train operators to enhance their equipment knowledge and response skills.
What is hot forming?

Hot forming is a process that uses high heat and pressure to shape complex parts from materials like titanium, magnesium, and high-strength alloys. Both the mold and blank are heated, sometimes up to 950°C, to enhance plasticity and elongation during forming.

What materials are suitable for hot forming?

Hot forming is ideal for titanium alloys, magnesium alloys, high-temperature alloys, and other high-strength materials.

What is superplastic forming (SPF) of titanium alloys?

SPF is an advanced technique that takes advantage of titanium’s ability to undergo extreme elongation at elevated temperatures and low strain rates. This allows the material to be shaped into complex geometries without breaking, similar to molding plastics.

What are the benefits of superplastic forming?
Manufacture of highly complex geometries
High dimensional accuracy and excellent surface quality
Efficient material usage with minimal waste
Reduced or eliminated secondary machining
Lightweight component design, especially for aerospace and automotive sectors
Applicable to a wide range of materials including aluminum, magnesium, and nickel-based alloys
What industries commonly use superplastic forming?
Aerospace: For structural parts like fuselage panels, frames, and nacelles
Engine Manufacturing: For heat shields, diffusers, and corrugated walls
Automotive: For lightweight aluminum or magnesium parts such as hoods, doors, and battery enclosures
New Energy: For high-precision bipolar plates in fuel cells
Rail Transit: For outer shell and internal acoustic panels using aluminum or titanium alloys
What drive systems are used in hot forming equipment?

Hot forming machines use either hydraulic drive systems or servo motor drives, depending on performance requirements.

What materials can be joined using vacuum diffusion bonding?

Vacuum diffusion bonding is suitable for dissimilar metals, graphite, ceramics, dispersion-strengthened high-temperature alloys, metal matrix composites, and porous sintered materials.
